Blueberry

Blueberry is looking for an adult only home. She can be rehomed with other dogs, and potentially cats and small animals (though we have no history of her behaviour around these animals).

Blueberry is a very scared, nervous and timid young lady, in fact, she is one of the most shut down dogs that has walked through our doors.

From the moment she arrived, she just wanted to hide away and not even be looked at; heart-breaking to witness. Blueberry has come a long way during her time in the shelter, but still has a long way to go.

It still takes Blueberry a long time to build up trust with a new person, but when she does, she is a super wiggly and sweet girl, and when she meets with another dog who matches her energy…we see her come alive. Her tail goes up, her eyes brighten, and we see her true playful character.

Though it is not essential, we do feel Blueberry could really benefit from another dog in the home, or certainly lots of doggy pals to play with and help build her confidence in a new environment.

When playing with dogs Blueberry does like a little rough and tumble so, if there is another dog in the home, it would need a similar play style to ensure compatibility.

Blueberry’s new owners will need to have experience of managing a nervous dog and a lot of time and patience to spend building that initial bond, to then go on and show her that the rest of the world and the people in it are not so scary after all.

Blueberry will likely always have an element of anxiety about her, but we are hopeful with the right family her fears will slowly ease and the beautiful girl we see glimmers of in the shelter, can come shining through.
